Question 4
Question
Within the FMEA method, the calculation and evaluation of the RPN (Risk Priority Number) is crucial. Are you able to check if the following statements are true (or false)?
Answer
RPN helps the responsible risk management team to prioritize risks.
RPN is calculated by multiplying Severity (S), Occurrence (O), and Detection (D).
Severity (S): A high severity ranking indicates severe risk.
Occurrence (O): A low occurrence rank reflects high failure occurrence potential.
Detection (D): A high detection rank reflects high detection capability.
Detection (D): A high detection rank reflects low detection capability.
Occurrence (O): A high occurrence rank reflects high failure occurrence potential.
Severity (S): A low severity ranking indicates severe risk.
The maximum value of RPN is 10x10x10 = 1000.
